Figure 10: Transects surveyed on Ngederrak Reef. Red lines indicate shallow water-transect. White lines represent deep-water survey lines. Thirteen transects were used at Ngesekesau reef. Seven transects on the northern end of the seagrass bed ran in an east/west direction. The other six transects ran in a north/south direction. Distance between the transects was again approximately 300 meters. One deep-water survey was conducted along the western border of the reef (Figure 11). At Bkul ra Omelochel a total of 12 transects were used. All transects ran parallel to each other and ran in a north/south direction. Distances between transects were approximately 300 meters. One deep-water survey was conducted along the western end of the reef and another was conducted along the eastern end (Figure 11). 23

White lines represent deep-water survey lines Red lines indicate shallow A total of 31 transects were used for the survey in Ngardmau, Ngaraard and Ngarchelong (Figure 12). Due to the extent of the seagrass bed transects were placed further apart from each other, between 500 meters and 1,000 meters apart. Most transects ran from the coast out towards the barrier reef. Deep-water surveys were done at three sites. Figure 12: Transects for Ngardmau/Ngaraard/Ngerchelong reef flat. Red lines indicate shallow water transect.
